Eternal Thief

On top of the Peak Court's Mountain Peak was a magnificent palace; it was known as the Sacred Azure Palace because here resides the Azure Sect Patriarch, Shane!

But right at this moment, within the meeting hall of the Sacred Azure Palace, the atmosphere was filled with murder as the Devil's Race representative, the Duke of Blood Devil Clan, the Demon's Race representative, the Imperial Demon Princess, Leona, the Third Lightning Elder of the Purple Lightning Clan, and even a gray tiger face with black horns from the magic beast was present here.

All of their focus was on the wizened, hunchback old man in white robes, and his appearance was like a wilted tree branch. His wily old eyes were filled with grim light as he looked at all the representatives who seemed to be ready to murder someone.

This hunchback old man was the Azure Patriarch, Shane, Dream Shatter's First Disciple, and current Sect Leader of the Azure Mountain Sect.

"To what do I owe the owner for all of my esteem guests paying me a visit at such an hour?" Shane questioned in a cold raspy tone.

The Blood Duke grimly replied with a murderous look in his eyes, "Are you still playing dumb?! Or do you think we are idiots and afraid of you?"

Shane really didn't have any clue why these guys were so apprehensive and demanded an audience with him so forcibly. As far as he knows, everything was going smoothly, and no one had ever done anything to offend these races.

Yet, here they were, and he felt he was in some sort of interrogation.

"If some offend you all, please feel free to tell me, and I'll immediately do anything in my power to make sure it won't happen again." Shane mildly stated.

"Is that so? What if we say all the human race has offended us?" Leona spoke at this moment with a sharp tone.

Shane's eyes narrowed as he looked at masked Leona, "Your Highness if you can prove that, we'll talk further on this topic."

The Third Lightning Elder suddenly gritted his teeth as if he couldn't take it anymore and furiously roared, "Y-you… vile creature! Not only your race took the Spirit Fire, but you even anger someone you shouldn't and use a borrowed knife to kill our brethren, yet you still dare to say that with a straight face!? How bold, do you forget who we are and your place?!"

Shane's eyes finally widened with disbelief before coldness crept out, "This is nothing but a baseless accusation! We never get any spirit fire, and like everyone else, our young ones are also trapped in that place. If we talk about explanations, it should be me demanding them from you all!"

The tiger-face magic beast, who was from the Horn Tiger Race, suddenly showed his long sharp fangs furiously, "First, my son was trapped, and now my brother is also dead, but you still refuse to admit your wrongdoing. I expect nothing less from a human scum! Forfeit your life!"

Without caring about the consequences, the Horn Tiger suddenly started to transform from his 2-meter-tall humanoid form into his true beast form. The others weren't surprised as if they were expecting it. They even bothered to tell him that information because of exactly for this reason.

They all wanted to see the depth of what Shane could do before taking the matter into their own hand, and what contender would be better than this hot-blooded Horn Tiger?

Shane was also surprised, and his expression turned nasty since he never expected someone would dare to try attacking him right in his own home. But this made one thing clear at least, this matter was quite serious, and somehow these people really believed that they took the spirit fire and even did something to wipe their people.

Yet he was not alerted by Glen, which was truly strange, and all he could think of was that they were being framed!

Nevertheless, he had to deal with the five-meter-tall tiger in front of him, who was a Law Awareness Realm Cultivator!

"If you think you are run rampant in my sect, then you are thoroughly mistaken!" Shane sneered coldly before suddenly the entire hall lightened up in blue runes, and a ghastly aura and pressure surfaced, making the other representative expression change.

But it was just the start, Shane then suddenly formed a hand sign, and powerful momentum was created. The blue runes turned darker, and the pressure became even more powerful, and suddenly, azure color winds started to rise in the hall.

"Stop, right here! Don't go too far, or there will be no place for you guys to make amends!" Even the Blood Duke was panicked when he felt the power of the Azure Winds, and he knew they couldn't be foolish enough to attack Shane right here.

The Horn Tiger also seemed to be snapped out of his mad state of mind when he felt the sharp winds covering him, and his heart palpitated.

At this moment, the winds started to vanish all of a sudden as the pressure decreased substantially.

Shane coldly looked at the representative, "I hope this will make you all understand that we humans are not easy to bully. Furthermore, I'm telling the truth about not having to do anything with what you accused me of. Someone is trying to frame us. Let me contact my junior brother, and we can all hear what he had to say, and this will prove my point, right?"

Although no one was willing to believe Shane, it might be the case since no one had seen the humans fleeing with their own eyes, so the voice's words might really be just a false accusation.

Besides, they can't overpower Shane in this place even if they work together, so they have to play along.

Shane also didn't delay and quickly contacted Glen with a grim expression in front of everyone. He was hoping that Glen was alive and shed some light on this strange matter.

However, when the cube was connected, Glen's guffawed voice rang. At that moment, no one knows better than Shane himself just how much he wished that this guy had been dead.

"Hahahaha, you contacted me at the right time, Eldest Brother! You won't believe it, but we got the Spirit Fire, and we even get rid of those arrogant fellows while doing virtually nothing ourselves. Now there is no proof left. I wish I could've seen those arrogant guys' faces when they found their races had been annihilated and won't even know we were the ones behind it. Hahahaha!"
